Hallelujah ... ! Praise the LORD , O my soul -.
I will praise the LORD all my life ; I will sing praises to my God while I have my being.
Put not your trust in princes , in mortal man , who cannot save.
When his spirit departs , he returns to the ground ; on that very day his plans perish.
Blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob , whose hope is in the LORD his God ,
the Maker of heaven and earth , - the sea , - and everything - He remains faithful forever.
He executes justice for the oppressed (and) gives food to the hungry. The LORD sets the prisoners {free} ,
the LORD opens (the eyes of) the blind , the LORD lifts those who are weighed down , the LORD loves the righteous.
The LORD protects - foreigners ; He sustains the fatherless and the widow , but the ways of the wicked He frustrates.
The LORD reigns forever ... , your God , O Zion , for all generations .... Hallelujah ... !
The LORD protects foreigners; He sustains the fatherless and the widow, but the ways of the wicked He frustrates.
The LORD reigns forever, your God, O Zion, for all generations. Hallelujah!
